Article 1Bio-MEMS - MEMS for Biomedical ApplicationsContinuous monitoring of physiological parameters of patients is important medical requirement in many cases especially when patients are in critical state. One of the important physiological parameters is blood pressure. In our country 1 out of every 8 persons above 30 year of age suffer from high blood pressure. In extreme cases continuous monitoring of blood pressure is required. Similarly continuous intraocular pressure (IOP) measurement is required in Glaucoma which is one of major reason for blindness. The conventional methods used by the medical practitioners for measurement of blood pressure referred to as extracorporeal methods like blood pressure cuff kit, tonometer (for IOP measurement) are not very suitable for continuous monitoring... Mr. Amit MongaArticle 2Zero Day Software VulnerabilitySoftware vulnerabilities are flaws or glitches or weaknesses that are created by developers totally unintentionally in software programs or in operating systems.

Zero day vulnerability or zero day attack refers to the attack on software vulnerability that was previously unknown. It also refers to the attack on software vulnerability which becomes known on the very same day. It is important for the user to understand the seriousness of zero day vulnerability. If a user is experiencing a zero-day vulnerability in a software program it means that vendor of the software is not yet aware about this flaw and if this software is used by a million of users around the globe then the level of security risk involved is quite high...
